The Game Is ON!

The Game is On! is a series of short animated films that put copyright and creativity under the magnifying glass of Sherlock Holmes, providing a unique, research-led and open access resource for school-aged learners and other creative users of copyright. Drawing inspiration from well-known copyright and public domain work, as well as recent copyright litigation, these films provide a springboard for exploring key principles and ideas underpinning copyright law, creativity, and the limits of lawful appropriation and reuse.

Each episode is accompanied by a set of Annotations, exploring the creative process behind it, as well as a number of related Case Files,supplementary educational materials aimed at suggesting points of discussion about copyright for teachers and students.
